And when you get right down to fig­ uring the actual cost of a good frame house, it would probably surprise you what can be done with a few hundred dollars. A little lumber goes a long <w ays when it comes to building, and the saving you effect in labor by using machine-smoothed finish ,v casing, base, flooring, etc., is one of the items that makes this talk about high cost sound pretty weak. If you're waiting for building materials to get cheaper before building, there's no hope for you. They are as cheap now as they'll ever be and the lumber we handle these days comes in such shape that really w,hen the whole job completed is consid­ ered, there's not a great deal of difference over the prices your father paid* Let's talk this over and sUrtyou Tight, ••There's No Place Like Home*' WILBUR LUMBER CO.
